but we have several Probowlers and we avg 2 yards? Zeke isn't the same player he was 2 years ago.
Zach Martin and Travis Frederick were pushed into the backfield on nearly every running play.............The Saints' interior offensive line was turning our DT's into whichever direction they wanted , just like the Rams O-Line did in the playoff game.....................
I saw Garrett on TV talk into his headset mic "Run Zeke," Forgot where it was but I saw it - and that proves he DID Have control and fault in the offense we ran tonight.The saints rushing attack was the same as ours outside of 2 good runs by kamara
And our running game sucked because we kept slamming zeke up the same hole out of the gun
Two reasons:
1. Our offensive line didn’t play well at all. Despite the name of the players.
2. Our defense isn’t good against the run, against good teams. They weren’t last year and the early returns this year aren’t promising. Of course, we have a geriatric defensive line coach/coordinator that doesn’t believe you need a big strong DT to stop the run effectively in the league, despite just about every other defensive coach, thinking you do.
Imagine that.

ummmm....they barely broke 100 yards with 5 different people rushing the ball!but we have several Probowlers and we avg 2 yards? Zeke isn't the same player he was 2 years ago.
The obvious answer is our DTs are not that great and they get blown out of the holes. People say the defense was good tonight but that last drive by the Saints when they eventually got sacks for a huge loss took a lot of time off the clock. The Saints ran it and the Cowboys knew they were going to run it and the Cowboys could not stop them in 3 downs. That's a bad sign, folks.
